Refractory kaposiform lymphangiomatosis relieved by splenectomy

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
IntroductionKaposiform lymphangiomatosis (KLA) is a rare and complex lymphatic anomaly with a poor prognosis. There is no standard treatment, and drug therapies are the most common therapeutic method.

Is Angiopoietin-2 Necessary for the Initiation of Tumor Angiogenesis? [PDF]

The American Journal of Pathology, 1998
Almost all functional cells are located within 30 μm of a blood capillary. Acute changes in blood flow are regulated in response to tissue needs by changes in the constriction level of blood vessels, 1 whereas long-term regulation of tissue perfusion is achieved by growth of new blood vessels or by vascular regression.

Angiopoietin-2 and angiopoietin-2/angiopoietin-1 ratio as indicators of potential severity of Plasmodium vivax malaria in patients with thrombocytopenia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Angiogenic factors such as angiopoietin 1 (Ang-1) and angiopoietin 2 (Ang-2) are biomarkers produced during activation and dysfunction of the vascular endothelium in several infectious diseases.

Angiopoietin-2 levels in COVID-19 patients as a marker of endotheliopathy [PDF]

Minia Journal of Medical Research
Background:COVID-19 is described as endothelial disease, endothelial markers in COVID-19 patients could serve as an early indicator of severity of the disease, Angiopoietin -2 is an angiogenesis regulator it is released upon endothelial activation.

Elevated plasma angiopoietin-2 levels and primary graft dysfunction after lung transplantation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
INTRODUCTION:Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is a significant contributor to early morbidity and mortality after lung transplantation. Increased vascular permeability in the allograft has been identified as a possible mechanism leading to PGD ...

Prognostic significance of the angiopoietin-2 for early prediction of septic shock in severe sepsis patients: supplementary data

, 2023
Aim: The current study investigated the plasma levels of angiopoietin-1/-2 and their association with clinical outcomes of sepsis. Methods: Angiopoietin-1 and -2 levels were quantified in plasma from 105 patients with severe sepsis by ELISA.

A Role for Angiopoietin-2 in Organ-Specific Metastasis

Cell Reports, 2013
Angiopoietin-2 (ANG2/ANGPT2) has recently emerged as a promising target for the inhibition of tumor metastasis. In this issue of Cell Reports, Minami et al. show that the calcineurin-NFAT pathway promotes pulmonary tumor metastasis by inducing ANG2 in the lung endothelium.

Angiopoietin-2 and Glomerular Proteinuria [PDF]

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2007
The close spatial apposition between podocytes, fenestrated endothelia, and mesangial cells within the glomerulus has led to speculation that paracrine growth factors secreted by these cells are required to maintain structural and functional integrity of glomerular permselectivity in adults ...
